Golden Lake, and all the passengers were transferred to it. A wrecking
train was immediately despatched from Ottawa, and it is expected that
the wreckage will have been removed by morning. The Pembroke train
leaving Ottawa at 5.15. p.m. was held up at Gore Bay station until the

sent out, the wreck was not a bad one. The cause of the accident had
not yet been reported to the head office.
